Besides being completely specious, I am no racist and therefore have no time for racist statistics.

1. You are a racist, you’ve proved it many times in the past. Maybe you don’t realize that judging other cultures by ignorance is a form of racism, in that case, instead of spending your time here, you should go visit the world and meet peoplke different from you, you’d see3 that non-white american republican christians are human beings too.

Hang on just a second, having met John on two occasions I can tell you that he is not only definately not racist, but one of the nicest guys I have ever met. I would bank money on the fact that statements he has made in the past were misunderstood rather than racist.

   2. Racist stats? What are you, stupid? Statistics are not racist. They point out fact of your society. And your society doesn’t help black people. They are struggling with poverty and therefore, they have high criminality rates. Meanwhile, Dubya is filthy rich and he’s more preoccupied by the other countries problems than US’ problems...

Alright now you are way off base, American doesn’t help black people? Why in the world should our government give preferential treatment to people simply based on their skin color? First off statistically blacks recieve more public assistance than any other race, that’s not help? Secondly several colleges and corporation give preferential treatment to blacks and latinos. Is there racism still in the hearts of some people? Absolutely, but can anyone point out one single civil liberty that is denied blacks?

Don’t try to sell me the excuse of past discrimination, otherwise we should march for the Irish, Italians, Chinese, and Japanese. All these races have experienced discrimination, heck the Chinese were not allowed to even enter the country. Either way it doesn’t really matter, we have gone way past all that. Today in America blacks hold very high positions both in the public and private sectors.

   It’s amazing how the masses can be stupid and elect Republicans. I mean, individually, I’m sure US citizens are as smart as any other people, but when it comes to politics... But I guess I am not well placed to talk. Québec did elect Jean Charest, a total moron, a few weeks ago. When will people learn?

I hear you, talk about stupid, here in California we re-elected our horrible govenor, who almost single handedly took the state from a $8 billion surpluss and changing it to a $36 billion defecit. Democrats in this state have no one to blame but themselves, they have run this state for the past ten years.

(...) Actually, the Republicans are to blame, and on two counts. Instead of putting up Richard Riodan, who could have beat Grey, the right wingers decided he didn't pass the far right litmus test, and put up a total loser that even the incompetent (...)
